The perfect Summer time atmosphere!
Picture this. Toes in the sand. Sun in your face. Cocktail in your hand. If this is what you like but the plane tickets aren’t available, allow KriStix to help. Mesmerising, hypnotic rhythms providing the ambience you so desire (even if it’s raining outside). Take this time to catch up with your friends and family at a drinks reception, cooking at a barbecue, floating on a lilo at a pool party or sit down for dinner whilst soaking up the laid back vibes of exotic bongos and congas. Either enjoying the sun you’re basking in or reminiscing on the happy memories you had in it. Allow KriStix to take you there. Metaphorically.
Frequently Asked Questions
What will be required to perform?
Performing at your desired venue is fairly simple! A safe, stable and dry performance area that is a minimum of 2 metres x 2 metres, near the speakers. Should there not be a DJ already playing, a top spec compact sound system can be brought but this will also increase the performance space required. Parking must be provided for by the client at external carparks but onsite parking is preferred due to the loading of 80kg+ equipment. A soft drinks tab is to be provided at the venue (or a glass of Pinot!), prepared food (when at the venue for longer than two hours) and a secure, heated and lit green room for those all important outfit changes!
Please ensure that your chosen venue allows live musicians and doesn’t have any inhibiting sound limiters or time/noise restrictions as it could mean that the performance cannot go ahead.
How is a quote generated?
A quote will be sent based on musician performance fee, travel times and duration at the venue. If the venue is more than two hours away from the performer, accommodation will have to be provided by the client. Should you be wanting to book more musicians through KriStix Drumming, every attempt will be made to share accommodation and travel to ensure the price is as fair as can be. Quotes are split into two parts, the Deposit due immediately to secure the booking and the Remainder due only seven days before the event!
What does this package entail?
This one hour package consisting of two twenty minute sets with a twenty minute interval will bring the Summer disposition and relaxed vibe to any occasion! If there is already a sound system/DJ in place then absolutely perfect! If not, don’t panic! For a hire price of £50, a top spec sound system will be provided to ensure that the music is heard by all socialites in attendance! Featuring Bossa Nova covers of all your favourite songs, just listen closely, you’ll soon recognise the tracks you love and be singing along in the sunshine!
When would this be perfect for?
Drinks receptions, barbecues, canopes (anything you’d like!), thus creating the ideal backing to your social gatherings and celebrations!
Can it be colour themed?
To match the beautifully “on brand” and “best that money can buy” congas and bongos, we find gold is the colour of choice! This really creates the sunny, sophisticated and glamorous atmosphere you so desire with the iconic military style sequin hat to add that little bit of edge. The more sparkle the better and, of course, heels are always a must. (Just let KriStix know the performance surface so she can pack stilettos or wedges accordingly!)
Can you offer advice with planning?
Yes! Please feel free to ask in regards to timings, other performers, and what can make the best impact for your special day!
